Triple torpedo or grenade launcher?

    I have have a shooter mk3 with lvl10 rare cannon, lvl20 uncommon sniper, and lvl14 rare big berta which are working fine for me. I have been looking for rare cannon and sniper since forever. However, I have relatively unused rare triple torpedo and grenade launcher x2 both. Like most players, I have limited resources so I can't really upgrade them all. For what I have seen other players using them, triple torpedo is a bit unreliable and will hit only people who don't pay attention though it can be used as area-denial which is kinda nice sometimes. Grenade has nice damage but seems to be best used by a speeder.

    Which one should I upgrade?

    Actually both of them are a bit not really suitable for shooter(I suggest missles)but in my opinion that since tri-torp is being nerfed,I suggest you to use grenade which you can protect yourself from yellow ships

    Grenades are a poor choice for a shooter. Most are too fragile and too slow to use one effectively... trip torps are a good complementary weapon once you get more weapon slots. I'd keep what you have now but I'd stop putting resources into the sniper, it's only a matter of time until you find a rare+ sniper and the uncommon one is scrapped.

    Triple torpedos are still awesome, and are not being nerfed anymore. They are perfect for crowd control, just fire into a crowd and forget. Grenades are also nice because they are quick and can hit from behind waves. Why not use both?

    Tritorps are great at range, grenades are good up close. Together they make a good midrange combo. Shoot a tritorp, watch where they dodge, and land a grenade in that area for guaranteed damage.

    Always make sure you shoot your tritorps so that if you miss your first target, they will still be heading towards other unfriends behind your main target. They keep going after all... and That way they are still useful!

    Tritorps are really powerful and torps in general are all over the place and hard to dodge so many as you get higher. Problem is an MK3 you've only got 3x5. Torps seem to be more common mk4+ when there is more room on the boat.
